When I receive emails on BB, it doesn't feel like it's polling every 15 minutes. I had a treo and it had a set time exactly 5 (you could set it to 5 minutes) minutes later you knew you were getting mail. On the BB sometimes I'll get like 3 or 4 messages all at once, so I figure, maybe it just polled and that's why they all came suddenly. But then, 3 minutes later i'll get another one. When I look at the time sent on the email, it was sent right then! Like instant push.
Still, if I send from BB email program, nothing shows up in my sent folder on the Gmail server. But this is easily fixed by sending from Gmail app for BBs.
To me it sounds like the two-way sync technology IS there, but needs to be worked on. Can't wait for that day to come!

Hard to believe it might be carrier specific, but all my BB sent emails show up in my Gmail Imap sent items folder.
